A PLUG FOR INDIE WRITERS

Buy our books.

For some reason when people hear we writers are independent press, they tell us, “Oh, self-published,” and dismiss us as viable and really good at what we do. We are creators, writers, editors and publishers. And many of us do all of our own artwork. There is no staff. We are everything. The downside is it takes hours and hours and our own money to produce a work, and then hours and hours of making sure it is a publishable piece. The upside is that we have complete control over our books. We own the rights and they will never go out of print.

It doesn’t matter that big publishing companies have not put their rubber stamp on our works. There are so many amazing writers out there who never got the chance to publish with a big house, so they chose to go the way of independent press. Many of us make it to the top 100 in sales through Amazon, but they get that way because people like you and me buy their books, relish them and review them positively. And, we can charge less so readers can afford them.

So, buy our books and enjoy the beautiful and great stories being told. We live and breathe by readers like you. So, let us own and sell our own works and let the author get the rewards, not the publisher. Trust that there are many many good books in the sea of not so good books, just like with traditional publishing.
